82-year-old sailor rescued from the North Sea
An 82-year-old sailor has been rescued from the North Sea, following a long operation by the UK and Norwegian coastguard.
Bad weather had been hampering the rescue of Julian Mustoe, whose yacht started drifting towards a gas platform last night.
Earlier, he refused to be airlifted by a helicopter because he did not want to abandon his boat.
He is now being taken to Bergen with his yacht in tow.
